Strategic Initiatives Unveiled by Victory Securities

Mr. Chen Peiquan, Executive Director of Victory Securities, expressed his enthusiasm for the achievement. He stated that he’s delighted to once again receive recognition from the SFC, making Victory the ‘first’ in this transformative journey.

The recent development in crypto regulations in administrative regions of China is a remarkable step after the China crypto crackdown.

He further elaborated that the achievements this year, including multiple ‘firsts’ in the virtual asset field, position them to lead and accumulate valuable operational experience in the industry.

The firm reclaiming the ‘first’ title will allow it to expand investor choices in compliant investments, leveraging its extensive business experience.

The data from Victory Securities reveals a remarkable surge in virtual asset trading volume and new customer acquisition during the third quarter of this year. This indicates a growing demand for virtual asset trading services in Hong Kong. In response, the company plans to introduce various promotions to encourage new customers to opt for compliant and secure virtual asset trading services.
